"I will take responsibility for what I have done," Dalinar whispered. "If I must fall, I will rise each time a better man."

Mais uma excelente adição para a série. Sanderson não decepciona e continua à expandir o universo , aprofundar o desenvolvimento dos personagens e aumentar cada vez mais o caráter épico da história.
Stormlight é, sem dúvida, a obra prima do autor até o momento.
Devo admitir , entretanto, que apesar de ter adorado esse volume, ele é também o que menos gostei até agora. Isso se deve muito ao ritmo da leitura. Achei bem mais lento e cansativo que os volumes anteriores. Deu para sentir bem o quanto o livro é longo.
O excesso de POV acho que influenciou muito nisso, pois sempre que eu estava em um bom ritmo de leitura, mudava o ponto de vista e levava um tempo até eu me interessar, logo mudando novamente. Isso acontece com uma frequência tão grande que há momentos de vários POVs em um mesmo capítulo. Mas apesar desse impacto inicial nas mudanças de POV alterando o ritmo, todos acabam sendo muito interessantes e trazendo informações e desenvolvimentos importantes para história.
Um único outro ponto que me incomodou, é que achei que os personagens aceitam determinadas revelações de forma muito rápida., sem quase nenhuma repercussão ou reflexão. Alguns relacionamentos também mereciam um pouco mais de desenvolvimento, mas o autor já melhorou muito nesse quesito em relação à obras anteriores.
No restante, adorei toda a história e fiquei bem animada em perceber alguns crossover com outras série da Cosmere.
Agora é esperar pacientemente pelo próximo volume : )

Desbravando Oathbringer
"I will take responsibility for what I have done. If I must fall, I will rise each time a better man."

Livrão da porra, pra variar, que melhora muito depois da página 900 e pouco, naquela avalanche doida do Sanderson. Que venha o 4º!

Não existem palavras suficientes pra descrever essa série e esse livro em particular, Sanderson ensina (de novo) como escrever uma fantasia!
A resenha está em inglês pois escrevi em um site estrangeiro, e não vou me dar ao trabalho de traduzir tudo. Creio que para quem está olhando o livro, como não existe uma versão traduzida, esse review não vai ser problema. Aí vai:

Until now I've read some books by Sanderson, having began with Elantris a few years ago and kept going with Mistborn, Legion and Warbreaker. In all of these series I got caught by the different atmospheres and characters displayed and marveled at the ingenious magic systems, which were at the same time most familiar and utterly unique. But most of all, the narrative and complexity of the world got to me.

I'm not one of those people that stops while reading to ponder the descriptions and imagine what they represent exactly. What I like the most and makes me admire some authors is their capacity at making a movie play in my head, with all the scenes coming together without me having the trouble to understand. And Sanderson does that wonderfully in many aspects, such as in the presentation of his worlds and characters.

But why am I saying all of this without having even mentioned the book I'm actually reviewing yet? That's because I can't simply jump to the review without an introduction that can (possibly) make you understand how much I admire his works and what Stormlight is representing to me right now. Mistborn is among one of the best series I've read in my entire life, Legion was a nice surprise for the light tone and different approach and Warbreaker introduced me to another interesting view on magic, with funny and intriguing characters. All great books with great characters, but Stormlight takes that all and makes it look like child's play. Perhaps that is the obvious path to be followed, since it's basically the ultimate series in the Cosmere, compiling what has been seen in the aforementioned ones and extending it in gigantic proportions. But understand, all of those series were great and meaningful to me in different ways, so when I say that SA surprised me the most, it should mean it is a BIG deal by my standards.

After all this praising, let's get started on what makes this amazing to me. I will try to be concise and avoid spoilers, but be warned there will be some few hidden.

The Narrative: Sanderson has a way to write that I believe everyone who has ever read something by him should probably have noticed already. In SA it isn't different, on the contrary it gets way more explicit. In the beggining the books (mind you that I'm not referring to smaller pieces such as the ones presented in the Arcanum Unbounded) often are slow paced, introducing basic elements concerning the world itself, characters backgrounds and the magic systems. With time the momentum unfolds and starts to build the plot in a more steadied pace, in which are presented a lot of questions that will only be answered by the end of the book or in future ones.
In Oathbringer the rythm grows way faster than in the previous ones. I love the parallels made between past and present and the fact that as a whole there is more action. It's awesome to see the world/character buildings accomplished in the first two books coming together in the scenes of Oathbringer. Beyond that, it is great to read a book that makes you think. Each time I put it down, I spent a good amount of time trying to put the pieces of the puzzle together in order to better digest what was happening and what could happen before coming back to resume it. This many pieces of information come in the form of interludes, paragraphs preceding the actual chapters and hints throughout the events. It is A LOT to consider.
Following a whole lot of pages destined to contextualize the state of the world and direct the events toward the middle/end, Sanderson's code of writing states that the last 200 or so pages is where all hell breaks loose and you just can't put the book down until its ending.
I know a lot of people who wouldn't like something built like this, but if you like me have the patience and appreciates the effort put into all the possible details of the universe created, both the series as a whole and this book in particular won't disappoint.

The Universe and the Magic: For all that Oathbringer brought of good, for me this was the most beautiful part. Have you ever felt like you knew something but you didn't know you knew until it's splashed right into your face? That was exactly my feeling. It just makes so much sense. The connections to another realms, the souls of objects and people, the personification of emotions and nature elements, even the effects of human work on the world.
Even if ou don't have a specific creed, these aspects should appeal to you in a personal matter since they are open to interpretation and points of view. I always say that the fantasy genre is the best one for us to reflect upon our daily lives because of how it takes complex things and cast them into a brighter light, without which we could possibily not even think about, ever. Besides, the universe in itself (the Cosmere) links often in subtle ways but in direct ones as well, which makes everything more interesting. P.s.: The images within the book are gorgeous!

And don't even get me started on the magic system. It is really well done, with lots of specifics to each power and ways to use that we surely haven't seen half until now. For those who like stories containing superhumans, monstrosities and lots of fighting, this is absolutely one for you. There are 10 types of magic (called Surges) going from changing the gravitational field to weaving illusions, and each one has its own use and cost upon which to be drawn. They are really well designed and the possibilities are a big part of what keeps you absorbed into the story, always wanting to know what comes next and how things are going to be solved. Even if you don't have the patience to read the 1000+ pages of each book, it's worth to look at the Ars Arcanum at the end, where the Surges and elements are explained.

The Characters: I know I said the Universe and Magic are the most beautiful part.... but well, the characters are part of the universe and the magic executed by each one makes part of who they are, so I think it's proper to say they are also the most beautiful things.
As I pointed out at the beggining, I kinda loath being forced to stop and imagine everything. The books that are atop my list are those that made me watch the scenes happen instantly before my eyes as I read and made me feel what the characters felt just by the sheer strenght of the narrative. So all comes together to this. I'm unable to read something if I don't get attached to at least one character and damn, in Stormlight I love at least five. It is extremely gratifying to read something when you know the motivations, feel the pain, the despair and fear for the safety (physical or not) of some characters. I know that I love the story not only when the world is well-built, but when its inhabitants cause me to have genuine reactions and feelings as much as real people would.

So give this series a try if you are a fantasy fan, or not even that. Just someone trying to understand yourself better through others' perspectives or live majestic and complex lives through memorable characters that will make you cry and laugh simultaneously. I swear by the Heralds that if you give it a try, even if it is not your genre of book and you come to abandon it after a while, you will get something good out of it. Something about living life, being strong and enjoying the journey not as a means toward an end, but as a destination in itself.

Jornada antes do destino
Livraço, não diria que é inferior a WoR, o problema é que WoR supera e gera muita expectativa, e OB fica no mesmo nível, mas o leitor espera o mesmo salto que teve de TWoK para WoR. Não tem esse salto, mas só de manter o nível já é um feito e tanto. Oathbringer, como bem definiu um amigo, é mais intimista, entra profundamente na subjetividade de alguns personagens, explorando suas jornadas até o 'chamado'. Sanderson expande seu mundo e coloca em cena figuras importantes que foram apenas mencionadas de passagem nos livros anteriores. Mais de uma vez, me surpreendi segurando lágrimas, e em algumas dessas vezes, no meio de uma batalha e sem que um personagem querido tivesse morrido. Não dá pra saber aonde levar essa série, mas já se pode dizer que a jornanda é mais importante do q o destino.
